Tetanus shots suck

After scalping myself a bit, receiving staples and a tetanus shot - session slowed a bit. The tetanus received on Thurs. seemed to attack my nervous system, making me weak as hell. So Friday consist of a few feeble attempts at some L-sits, pole climbs and flags. Then some foam rolling later in the day. Found out that rolling through the quads towards the feet into a tuck, sends a very strange (pins-needlish/electric) sensation through the right leg into the achilles heel.
Saturday consisted of rollerblading a bit w/the kids, and found a fantastic cluster of bodyweight stations at Mission Bay Park. Strength bit a back for some varied pulls, tried a couple of dragon flags (tough w/skates on), some L-sits, straddles to tucked planches, pistols, flags, pole climbs, and some frisbee - nice day :)
Sunday's session felt like strength was returning and then some. After getting worried on the foam roller with the same 'tingling' sensation down the leg, the work was as follows:

TGU's - 1 each side w/32 kg - 1 each side w/40 kg

Swings - 100 single arm 10 each side with around 30-45 second recovery between 5 sets.

Strict Press - don't know when the connection was found, but suddenly now press the 32 kg like I would a 24!?! Squeezing a gripper in the opposite hand, and found placing the stem of the bell on the palm heel 'pinkie' side helps tremendously. Alternated 1 rep each side for 6 sets.

Windmills - 32 kg x 3 each side

Flag attempts and L-sits to tucked planche to straddle using 32's for base.
